Easy. And THANKS for participating...

Come up I-75 to exit 205. (Clark Rd.), it's the first Sarasota exit. When you get off the interstate make a left so you are heading west on Clark Rd. You will go about a mile or so and on the left you will see a fairly good sized greenish building with "Livingstons" on the front of it. If you should pass over railroad tracks at McInstosh Rd., you've gone to far. Also on the corner is a big white sign with blue letters that says Clark Center. That is Clark Center Ave., turn left there, (you are now headed south) and down on the left hand side past a small strip mall thingie maybe half a mile little less, you will see a black sign with yellow lettering saying Corvettes West. The address is 6175 Clark Center Ave.

We will also have "Corvette Poker Run" signs out by the intersection of Clark Rd. and Clark Center Ave. directing you in. We will have people to assist you in parking to register. Just come into the office to register and get started.

Tell any friends you might have that also have Corvettes.

Trying to get as many as I can. Would LOVE to have 125 cars there. All the card stops have plenty of parking and Hooters is reserving parking for us.

Any other questions contact me. Russ

So what is the downside to that? Except, of course, that everyone else will probably outlive me..............

Oh, btw, the wife and I are both mediums for the T-shirts. The wife and I were discussing the poker run today when driving back from our trip to Micanopy. With her sister coming down from Delaware that weekend, I don't think I could swing the trip to Sarasota. Would it gum up the works if I buy two tickets anyway and have to be a no-show?

We're in! Check and registration are in the mail

Can we see if some of the local club members would like to join in? Didn't know if you had all the cars you wanted already.

The more the merrier. I'd really appreciate it if you would spread the word. For some really petty "political reasons" there are some in my own club who are downplaying this event yet others are really trying to help me. I won't get into it until after the event, but there are going to be some "crossed swords". At this point I have more coming down from Tampa than my own club. It's embarassing.

I REALLY appreciate my club members who are trying to help me.

If I had my way we'd have 200 cars at this Poker Run. With the exception of my own club, the interest and response has been very good.

Bottom line, bring all that you can. We'll have room.....and THANKS...

Great! I sent an email to the local clubs down here with a link to the registration form and this thread, AND to the home page here. Maybe Rich will get some new members to the site, too!
